To my son, Jordan—I am incredibly impressed,
and amazingly proud of the wonderful young man

fter writing books for 12 years now, I still find that the thing that’s the hardest for me to
write in any book is writing the acknowledgments. It also, hands down, takes me longer
than any other pages in the book. For me, I think the reason I take these acknowledgments
so seriously is because it’s when I get to put down on paper how truly grateful I am to be sur-
rounded with such great friends, an incredible book team, and a family that truly makes my life
a joy. That’s why it’s so hard. I also know why it takes so long—you type a lot slower with tears
in your eyes.
To my remarkable wife, Kalebra: We’ve been married nearly 21 years now, and you still continue
to amaze me, and everyone around you. I’ve never met anyone more compassionate, more loving,
more hilarious, and more genuinely beautiful, and I’m so blessed to be going through life with you,
to have you as the mother of my children, my business partner, my private pilot, Chinese translator,
and best friend. You truly are the type of woman love songs are written for, and as anyone who
knows me will tell you, I am, without a doubt, the luckiest man alive to have you for my wife.
To my son, Jordan: It’s every dad’s dream to have a relationship with his son like I have with
you, and I’m so proud of the bright, caring, creative young man you’ve become. I can’t wait to
see the amazing things life has in store for you, and I just want you to know that watching you
grow into the person you are is one of my life’s greatest joys.
To my precious little girl, Kira: You have been blessed in a very special way, because you are a
little clone of your mom, which is the most wonderful thing I could have possibly wished for you.

I see all her gifts reflected in your eyes, and though you’re still too young to have any idea how
blessed you are to have Kalebra as your mom, one day—just like Jordan—you will.
To my big brother Jeff, who has always been, and will always be, a hero to me. So much of who
I am, and where I am, is because of your influence, guidance, caring, and love as I was growing
up. Thank you for teaching me to always take the high road, for always knowing the right thing to
say at the right time, and for having so much of our dad in you.
I’m incredibly fortunate to have part of the production of my books handled in-house by my
own book team at Kelby Media Group, which is led by my friend and longtime Creative Director,
Felix Nelson, who is hands down the most creative person I’ve ever met. He’s surrounded by some
of the most talented, amazing, ambitious, gifted, and downright brilliant people I’ve ever had the
honor of working with, and thank God he had the foresight to hire Kim Doty, my Editor, and
the only reason why I haven’t totally fallen onto the floor in the fetal position after writing both a
Lightroom 3 book, and a CS5 book back to back. Kim is just an incredibly organized, upbeat, focused
person who keeps me calm and on track, and no matter how tough the task ahead is, she always
says the same thing, “Ah, piece of cake,” and she convinces you that you can do it, and then you
do it. I cannot begin to tell you how grateful I am to her for being my editor, and to Felix for finding
her. I guess great people just attract other great people.
Working with Kim is Cindy Snyder, who relentlessly tests all the stuff I write to make sure I didn’t
leave anything out, so you’ll all be able to do the things I’m teaching (which with a Photoshop
book is an absolute necessity). She’s like a steel trap that nothing can get through if it doesn’t
work just like I said it would.

The look of the book comes from an amazing designer, a creative powerhouse, and someone
whom I feel very, very lucky to have designing my books—Jessica Maldonado. She always adds
that little something that just takes it up a notch, and I’ve built up such a trust for her ideas
and intuition, which I why I just let her do her thing. Thanks Jess!
I owe a huge debt of gratitude to my Executive Assistant and Chief Wonder Woman, Kathy

Siler. She runs a whole side of my business life, and a big chunk of our conferences, and she
does it so I have time to write books, spend time with my family, and have a life outside of
work. She’s such an important part of what I do that I don’t know how I did anything without
her. Thank you, thank you, thank you. It means more than you know.
Thanks to my best buddy, our Chief Operating Officer and father of twin little girls, Dave
Moser, first for handling the business end of our book projects, but mostly for always looking
out for me.
Thanks to everyone at New Riders and Peachpit, and in particular to my way cool Editor, Ted
Waitt (who is one heck of a photographer and a vitally important part of everything I do in
“Bookland”), my wonderful Publisher Nancy Aldrich-Ruenzel, Marketing Maven Scott Cowlin,
Marketing Diva Sara Jane Todd and the entire team at Pearson Education who go out of their
way to make sure that we’re always working in the best interest of my readers, that we’re always
trying to take things up a notch, and who work hard to make sure my work gets in as many
people’s hands as possible.
Thanks to my friends at Adobe: Kevin Connor, John Nack, Mala Sharma, John Loiacono, Terry
White, Cari Gushiken, Julieanne Kost, Tom Hogarty, Dave Story, Bryan Hughes, Thomas Nielsen,
Russell Preston Brown, and the amazing engineering team at Adobe (I don’t know how you all
do it). Gone but not forgotten: Barbara Rice, Jill Nakashima, Rye Livingston, Addy Roff, Bryan
Lamkin, Jennifer Stern, Deb Whitman, and Karen Gauthier.
Thanks to my “Photoshop Guys”: Dave Cross, RC Concepcion, and Corey Barker, for being
such excellent sounding boards for the development of this book, and a special shout out
to Matt Kloskowski for all his input and ideas for this edition of the book. It’s much better
because of his input, and I’m very grateful to have his advice, and his friendship. I want to
thank all the talented and gifted photographers who’ve taught me so much over the years,
including: Moose Peterson, Joe McNally, Anne Cahill, Vincent Versace, Bill Fortney, David
Ziser, Helene Glassman, Kevin Ames, and Jim DiVitale.
Thanks to my mentors, whose wisdom and whip-cracking have helped me immeasurably,
including John Graden, Jack Lee, Dave Gales, Judy Farmer, and Douglas Poole.
Most importantly, I want to thank God, and His son Jesus Christ, for leading me to the woman
of my dreams, for blessing us with two amazing children, for allowing me to make a living doing

something I truly love, for always being there when I need Him, for blessing me with a wonderful,
fulfilling, and happy life, and such a warm, loving family to share it with.
